GET THEM HATS OUT START THE PARTAYING.
3rd year and running!
Let's hope for another year of failed trolls, Gligurr not being able to not edit this post, another Super Administrator in Mewderator, Registered user trachy, and maybe Moderator Shadow!
A big thanks to Pokemaster for making the awesome site, and most of everyone else for contributing to make it awesome :3

Well, I guess I could to something very emotional here, so:

Well, let's start with before I got here. What can I say? I was a dorky, geeky, loser, I admit it xD. Then I met you awesome people, and it's all thanks to the Pokebase, made by the amazing Pokemaster.

I'm also very awkward around foreigners, so that served as a problem. This place made a teensy weensy bit less awkward (Yes JCM and Gligurr, thank you for doing that). So you could say this place molded my life from a crap load to a not-so-crappy crap load.

I met Rio, JCM, The Pika, RedShift and I can't even begin to count how many others I met. Poke'slash, Morning Glory, Ninja, Leboss, Neo DG and SOOOO many others (You know who you are :)), oh, and recently, my new best friend, Flare, AKA Benjamin.

So this site has brought me

Extra knowledge of Pokemon

A better life

Good times

Amazing friends who I will never forget.

Okay, okay, let's not complain about how I didn't put any GIFs or the other stuff other people put, but I poured my heart out for my friends. So...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POKEBASE!

Ah, you don't know him. He was awesome, one of my best friends. He always listened to me and was pure amazing and an awesome friend. He mysteriously disappeared one day. Rumours say Gligurr killed him and is wearing his body as a disguise, but with a new identity...
